Program Learning Outcomes

Musical Theatre is the most diversified area of the dramatic arts. Our focus in training students is to integrate three art forms: acting, singing and dancing into a single mode of expression. Our students explore the unique relationship that exists among these three disciplines, in order to compete as performers in a challenging job market.
